context_page_description: The Federal Administrative Court is one of the five federal supreme courts of Germany. It is the court of the last resort for generally all cases of administrative law, mainly disputes between citizens and the state. It hears appeals from the Oberverwaltungsgerichte, or Superior Administrative Courts, which, in turn, are the courts of appeals for decisions of the Verwaltungsgerichte.
  However, cases concerning social security law belong to the jurisdiction of the Sozialgerichte with the Bundessozialgericht as federal court of appeals, and cases of tax and customs law are decided by the Finanzgerichte, and, ultimately, by the Bundesfinanzhof.
  The Bundesverwaltungsgericht has its seat at the former Reichsgericht building in Leipzig.
